Chicago folks-- up for a meetup this weekend?

[fudge stripe cookays]

Well, my worst thoughts have come to pass.

My favorite aunt up in Chicago passed away Wednesday night.

It'd be nice to meet some DUers while I am up. It looks like I will probably be flying up tomorrow (Sat) morning, and staying for 3 or 4 days. I'll probably be stayin out near O'Hare, and will get a rent car. She'll be interred at Mount Emblem, but not til next week.

I have no idea what the schedule is yet. I need to speak to my other aunts. But I thought I would throw this out there.

Meeting some great folks will definitely cheer me up!

1. ...I'm in the Chicago area

Hi...I'm generally in the 'burbs but rent an apartment in the Lakeview area of Chicago....If you can send me a private message, maybe we can find a way to hook-up over the weekend and/or a bit later.

4. Sorry for your loss

A post in the lounge may get more attention tho. I am in the O'hare area and depending on timing and location may be able to stop in for a bit.

5. Thanks! Point taken.

Right now it's looking like Sunday sometime. Susang and her beloved may be able to give me a ride to wherever, or I can drive if it's not snowing.

6. PM me if you get something together

Sunday during the day would probably work for me. I live out in the burbs, about 15 min from OHare.

7. New post in the lounge is looking a bit livelier than this one.

Watch there for updates. I probably won't be taking my laptop with me, so won't be able to check for updates.
